The AirTAC Airtac ASE Single Acting Plunger Type Compact Air Cylinder ASE25X10SB is a genuine single acting, push (spring return) ISO 21287 compact air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 10mm stroke, M5×0.8 air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. Its short compact envelope saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder.
This AirTAC ASE25X10SB is a single acting push cylinder with spring return, delivering a net push force of 210.1 N at 0.5 MPa and 308.3 N at 0.7 MPa. Its ISO 21287 compact body is about 50% shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, ideal for tight spaces.
The hard-anodized aluminium body and S45C hard-chrome rod resist wear, while the fixed TPU bumper absorbs end-of-stroke impact. With the optional -S magnet fitted, you can mount CMSE or DMSE switches for position sensing. For a safe vertical lift, plan for about 12.8 kg (0.6 of 210.1 N divided by 9.81) to maintain a 2:1 margin.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACE-series (ISO 21287) datasheet. Body: hard-anodized aluminium alloy; piston rod: S45C carbon steel with hard-chrome plating. Rod type: female thread (blank) or male thread (B). Thread options: PT (blank) / G. A built-in magnet is OPTIONAL — add the -S code to fit CMSE / DMSE position sensors.
| Pressure | Push force (spring return) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 210.1 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 308.3 N |
Single-acting push: air extends the rod; the return spring retracts it. Forces already net the spring; minimum working pressure is 0.2 MPa. Single-acting strokes are short (Ø12 to 10 mm, Ø16-100 to 25 mm).

ACE-family variants: ACE (double acting), ASE / ATE (single acting push / pull), ACED (double rod), ACEJ (adjustable stroke), TACE / TACED (non-rotating twin-guide yoke). Mounting accessories: FA / FB flange, LB foot, CA / CB clevis, CR, SDB pivot, FTC; plus I and Y knuckles. Thread PT (blank) / G.
Use in a jig to clamp small parts during CNC drilling; the 210.1 N push holds components securely, and the spring retract clears the workspace quickly.
Drive a label applicator head in a packaging line; the 10 mm stroke and 50-500 mm/s speed match rapid labeling cycles, and the compact body fits under guards.
Activate a safety interlock on a machine guard; the spring return ensures the rod retracts on air loss, and the TPU bumper prevents damage at high cycle rates.
For a smaller footprint, consider the ASE20X10 with 127.4 N push at 0.5 MPa, or step up to the ASE32X25 for 352.5 N. This 25 mm bore model suits short-stroke applications up to 25 mm standard, but the 10 mm stroke here is well within limits. The male rod thread (B code) simplifies mounting with rod knuckles, and the M5x0.8 port is compact for tight plumbing.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 210.1 N, and at 0.7 MPa it is 308.3 N, both net of the return spring. The minimum working pressure is 0.2 MPa, and the proof pressure is 1.5 MPa (215 psi).
The short body saves about 50% of the mounting length of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, fitting into tight jigs and guards. The fixed TPU bumper at both ends absorbs end-of-stroke energy, and the optional -S magnet enables CMSE or DMSE switch mounting for position feedback.
